Massage Therapy @ Enfield Health &
Wellness Center
Massage Therapy is the manual manipulation of
muscles and soft tissue by applying pressure to
the body with the goal of positively affecting health
and well being of the patient.
Massage comes to us from many cultures and is
perhaps the oldest method of natural healing.
The Benefits of Massage Therapy
Include:
- Massage is very effective
in the relief of pain and discomfort, whether
due to health issues or to chronic stress.
- Massage can in some patients
cause a decrease in blood pressure and heart
rate due to reflex effects through the sympathetic
nervous system. Reflex effects include muscle
relaxation, relief of spasms and cramps and
increased range of motion.
- Massage calms the nervous
system.
- The Lymphatic system can be
stimulated by massage. It can also strengthen
the immune system. As well as increase blood
circulation.
- Massage increases oxygenation
to the tissues
